Vladimir Putin celebrates his twentieth birthday as president
Today Russian President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin celebrates his 71st birthday. The head of the Russian state was born on October 7, 1952 in Leningrad.
This birthday coincided with another, but already round date - this is the twentieth birthday, which Vladimir Putin celebrates while holding the post of President of Russia.
Despite the fact that the holiday fell on a weekend this year, the Russian President will spend it in working mode. It is expected that Vladimir Putin, together with the presidents of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, will participate in a ceremony marking the start of Russian gas supplies to Uzbekistan through Kazakhstan.
As for the birthday celebration itself, it will reportedly be held with close people.
- Putin once said.
However, no matter how much one would like to spend it in privacy, this cannot be done, as the numerous congratulatory telegrams and calls received by the president on this day are distracting. At the same time, calls from other countries are often not limited to congratulations, but also touch upon current work issues.
Let us recall that Vladimir Putin took the post of President of the Russian Federation on May 7, 2000. Then he remained in this post until May 7, 2008. On May 7, 2012, Putin again became Russian president and holds this position to this day.
